[[-SOAP HUB]] [[Genesis 09]] ## Title: Seasons Change ## Scripture: (Genesis 9:29) “The entire lifetime of Noah was 950 years, and then he died.” (NET) ## Observation: Only a couple of chapters ago, the world looked very different from how it does now. In this chapter, God opens up a whole new aspect of life. They are now able to eat meat, but they have to do so in a humane way. Then, even mighty men fall. At last, we realize that even mighty men die. All things change, except for God. It would be hard to believe that someone like Noah was human when you realize what God used him to do. However, all men are mortal and die. Only the Lord is truly righteous and holy. This is important because we have to be careful never to place our heroes on unfair pedestals. Allow them to be human. We still hold them accountable, but we never place our ultimate hope in them. Our ultimate hope is in God. So, let the seasons change. The Lord stands unmoved. ## Application: Are you grieving the loss of a sweet time in your life or are you wishing the current season would change? Don’t worry. All seasons change. What good thing can you be thankful for about today? ## Prayer: Thank You, Jesus, for Your faithfulness in all seasons.
